My Experience

          From my past experience in English, I never really enjoyed it.  I do not really like reading and writing assignments like essays, letters and such.  I do enjoy using computers, working with wood and science.  English is one of my least favourite because I struggle with the writing assignments.  I was never interested in it.  I do believe i get the same marks in french, math and English but i don't find that I am marked the same in my other classes.

          In grade 8, I achieved my diploma and I was definitely satisfied with that.  I achieved this because I worked as hard as I could to pass all the grades for 10 years without failing.  To improve my grades in grade 8 I actually started taking notes and studying.  I also did that to get some practise for high school.  I found it more enjoyable when the teacher read aloud and than we have group discussion.  I do not like when we have to read our selves and than write stuff about it because I'm a slow reader and barely have any time to answer the questions. 

         My goal for this course in to get atleast an 80.  I believe i will need to participate, do my homework and not be late.  Some factors my be to study for tests and actually do my homework.  I would expect them to keep me challenged.  I plan on going to college or university so I can get a good job.

         Some interesting things about me are that I've played hockey for about 10 years now and I like to joke around alot.  I also do not like sitting for long periods of time.  I have 1 cat and 1dog and some of my favourite things are to play hockey and make designs.  My friends, well I try to be friend with everybody but my most important friends are the ones from elementary school because I've known them for a couple years.  There is really nothing we really like to do we will just do whatever we feel like doing.  My friends don't influence me in school, I just do the best that I can everyday.  Although on the rare occasion that they do a little distracted and than I forget what I was working on for a minute.        

        I describe myself as outgoing, shy at times, funny and very active.  I get shy when i have to say a speech infront of a bunch of people or if I am meeting alot of new people.  I tend to be very active  and funny if I'm in a good mood.  I try to be outgoing, active and funny when I'm with my family friends or at school and I usually act like this because atleast 1 of my friends so something nice to me.
